Curator's Statement:
Mark Dyke’s bronze and clay animal sculptures and David D’Agostino’s diorama-based photography are part of the Bestiary Collective. Formed by Dyke and D’Agostino, the Bestiary Collective is a group of artists that are joining a centuries-long endeavor to bring compassion to the estrangement between humans and nonhumans.
For the last couple of centuries humans have used nonhumans for food, sport and profit. More recently, nonhumans are increasingly collateral damage in the coalescing fronts of climate change, environmental crisis, and encroachment on wild animal habitat.
Dyke and D’Agostino have provided a space to hear or feel what nonhumans are encountering as they attempt to survive inside this bewildering world.
